HE WALKED AROUND PARIS ‘AS A JEW’ FOR 10 HOURS


Truth Lives Here


The Reality Caught On Video
Is Hard To Stomach

Jason Howerton, TheBlaze — While walking quietly through the streets of Paris wearing a yarmulke, Zvika Klein claims to have experienced the shocking amount of discrimination and intimidation that Jews can experience on a daily basis.

With a photographer walking in front of him with a GoPro camera hidden on his backpack, Klein says an array of insults and hostile stares were hurled in his direction because he was perceived as a Jew.

“He came here to f*** from the front and the back,” one person reportedly said.

“Viva Palestine!” another shouted.

“Hey you, with the kippa (yarmulke), what are you doing here?” yet another individual remarked.



Writing for NRG.co.il, Klein revealed details of his shocking experience:
Welcome to Paris 2015, where soldiers are walking every street that houses a Jewish institution, and where keffiyeh-wearing men and veiled women speak Arabic on every street corner. Walking down one Parisian suburb, I was asked what I doing there. In modern-day Paris, you see, Jews are barred from entering certain areas.

[…]

For 10 hours I quietly walked down the streets and suburbs of Paris, with photographer Dov Belhassen documenting the day using a GoPro camera hidden in his backpack. Given the tensions in Paris, which is still reeling from a wave of terrorist attacks (including the murder of Charlie Hebdo magazine journalists), I was assigned a bodyguard.

Areas known as tourist attractions were relatively calm, but the further from them we walked, the more anxious I became over the hateful stares, the belligerent remarks, and the hostile body language.
Klein and his crew later walked through “mostly Muslim neighborhoods” and the presence of a “Jew” was reportedly met with stunning anti-Semitism.

At one point, Klein claims a little boy saw them and asked his mother, “What is he doing here, Mommy? Doesn’t he know he will be killed?”

Concluding his account of the experiment, Klein wrote: “Is this what life is like for Paris’ Jews? Is this what a Jew goes through, day in and day out, while walking to work or using public transportation? The majority of French Jews do not flaunt their religion, as the Jewish community leaders have urged them to wear hats as they walk to and from work, or go bareheaded. But what about nighttime? Well, Jews prefers to stay inside in the evening. It is safer at home.”

SHOULD PUBLIC OFFICIALS AND BUSINESS OWNERS BE FORCED TO PROVIDE GAY WEDDING SERVICES?


Truth Lives Here



Billy Hallowell, TheBlaze — Slightly more Americans support gay marriage than oppose it, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll, though that same survey found that people are also more likely to support allowing wedding-related businesses to deny services to gay couples on religious grounds.

While 44 percent of respondents had no problem with legalizing gay unions in their states, 39 percent opposed such a measure, with 15 percent claiming that they have no opinion on the matter.

But as for the related hot topic of government officials and religious business owners having the right to decline services to gays and lesbians, the public offered some caveats, according to the Associated Press.

Fifty percent of respondents said that state and local officials and judges who issue marriage licenses in places where gay unions are legal should be exempt from doing so if they have a religious objection; 46 percent said that they should not be exempt.

There was even more support for business owners who provide wedding products and services being able to refuse service to gay weddings, with 57 percent favoring this right and 39 percent rejecting it.

The AP-GfK Poll was conducted from January 29-February 2 among 1,045 U.S. adults, with a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

TheBlaze has extensively covered the debate over exemptions for public officials and business owners. From bakers being investigated for refusing to make cakes with messages opposed to homosexuality to bakers declining gay wedding confectionaries, there have been a series of highly publicized debates of late over the contentious issue.

There are also other incidents that are similar, but do not involve wedding services, including the recent case of a Christian printer who was punished after declining services to a gay pride organization.

On the public official front, some counties in Florida have decided to simply stop performing all weddings in an attempt to circumvent requirements that same-sex unions be performed, while clerks in other states have quit their positions.

SAUDI PREACHER MAKES BIZARRE CLAIM ABOUT THE DISCOVERY OF AMERICA


Truth Lives Here


The Imam Also Suggested That
Christians And Jews Understand Only Violence


“I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve.
Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.”
—The Quran 8:12


Sharona Schwartz, TheBlaze — A Saudi preacher said that Muslims were already in America before Christopher Columbus ever sailed there.

Speaking at the Sa’eed bin Jubair Mosque in Jedda, Saudi Arabia, Imam Issa Assiri said of the discovery of America: “The truth is that Columbus knew about the ‘new world’ even before he set sail. He also knew that there were Muslims there.”

The preacher contended that Columbus’ mission to America was all part of a war against Islam.

“He received a personal commission to sail to America from a Crusader queen [Isabella] who hated Islam and the Muslims,” Assiri said, according to a translation by the Middle East Media Research Institute. “That was before this hateful crusader turned to the American continent, in order to fight the Muslims there. The Muslims were there before Columbus and all the others.”

In one of his sermons, the imam also suggested that Christians and Jews understand only violence.

“When they faced death [by violence] … this is the language these Jewish and Christian infidels understand. This is the only language they understand. [After the attacks in France] they changed their policy,” Assiri said.

The imam said those who curse or mock the Prophet Muhammad, even if only in jest, “must be killed, even if he repents.”

The videos of Assiri’s speeches were posted online earlier this month and were translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in November made the claim that Muslims discovered America in the 12th century, nearly three centuries before Christopher Columbus set foot there.

THE 10 MOST DANGEROUS, DEADLY AND HORRIFIC PLACES IN THE WORLD TO BE A CHRISTIAN — AND THE WORST COULD BE YET TO COME


Truth Lives Here


Christians Around The World Face Torture, Rape, Imprisonment And Death Simply Because Of Their Faith

Billy Hallowell, TheBlaze — The worst might be yet to come for Christians enduring violence, murder and persecution across the globe, according to a Christian human rights organization that monitors and exposes atrocities aimed at believers.

Open Doors USA has released its “2015 World Watch List,” a report that highlights and ranks the worst nations in the world to be a Christian, finding that, while the Middle East continues to be the most violent place for Christians, the largest increase in persecution unfolded in Africa during 2014.

“Approximately 100 million Christians are persecuted worldwide, making them one of the most persecuted religious groups in the world,” read a statement announcing the report. “Islamic extremism is the main source of persecution in 40 of the 50 countries on the 2015 World Watch List.”

Here’s the list of the top 10 worst places in the world to be a Christian:

North Korea, once again, topped the list in 2014 as the most dangerous, with Somalia, Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan following suit. Iran, where American citizen and pastor Saeed Abedini continues to be detained and persecuted, comes in at number seven.

According to Open Doors USA, Christians around the world face torture, rape, imprisonment and death simply because of their faith — and the problems could worsen. The group defines “persecution” as ”any hostility experienced as a result of one’s identification with Christ.”

The report found that the problems are profound and even extend into nations known to have majorities of Christian faithful.

“Even Christian-majority states are experiencing unprecedented levels of exclusion, discrimination and violence,” David Curry, president and CEO of Open Doors USA, said in a statement. “The 2015 World Watch List reveals that a staggering number of Christians are becoming victims of intolerance and violence because of their faith. They are being forced to be more secretive about their faith.”

Read more about the plight that Christians face in each nation ranked on the list here.

As TheBlaze previously reported, the top five worst countries to be a Christian in the 2013 report published last year were were exactly the same, though Iraq moved from the fourth spot in 2013 to the third in 2014, switching places with Syria.

Ferguson In Flames: Chaos Erupts After Grand Jury Decision

Newsmax — Chaos returned to the streets of Ferguson after a grand jury declined to indict a white police officer in the death of Michael Brown — a decision that enraged protesters who set fire to buildings and cars and looted businesses in the area where the unarmed, black 18-year-old was fatally shot. Monday night's destruction appeared to be much worse than last summer's protests, with at least a dozen businesses badly damaged or destroyed. Authorities reported hearing hundreds of gunshots, which for a time prevented fire crews from fighting...

Israel Considers Striking Iran
It remains to be seen if the U.S. military will support President Obama
in stopping Israel from defending herself.

By L. Todd Wood Western Journalism — I laughed yesterday when I heard a news talking head say that no one wants an Iran deal more than Iran and John Kerry. This is an understatement. Iran wants relief from the crippling sanctions that Congress forced the Obama administration to impose. John Kerry wants kudos by his name for posterity, as the one who solved the Iranian problem. The deal is the priority–just a deal. You don’t see the national security interest of the United States and her allies when discussing Iran. You just hear about getting a deal....

The True Story Of Ferguson And The Gentle Giant

Ben Shapiro: Reality Check
Ben Shapiro exposes the truth behind the media-created myth of Gentle Giant Michael Brown, the unarmed teen gunned down in cold blood by a white racist cop for the crime of walking while black. Except that every part of that story is a lie.

Partial Transcript: Everything you know about Michael Brown is a lie. The media, the politicians, the race-baiters - they all told you the story of the innocent young, unarmed black teen, the Gentle Giant, murdered in cold blood by a vicious white cop representing the evil establishment.

Al Sharpton, who is always first on the scene when a black person is killed by a white – or, in the case of St. Trayvon of the Blessed Hoodie, a white Hispanic – described Brown as a “gentle giant,” too. Over at Daily Kos, a writer described St. Michael as a “big guy who his family called their ‘Gentle Giant’…built to be a high school football player – direct from central casting – but Mike was too timid for the sport. According to friends and family, he had never been in a fight in his life.” CNN, The Daily Mail – all of them called him a “gentle giant.”

And the man who deprived the world of this “gentle giant” was, of course, Officer Darren Wilson.

Originally, we were told that Wilson shot Brown from behind, after pulling over the “gentle giant” for walking in the middle of the street – a situation President Obama would later term “walking while black.” Supposedly, Wilson pulled the 6’5”, 289-lb. Brown through his driver’s side window, but Brown escaped and ran away from this mad emissary of police brutality. Wilson then allegedly shot the fleeing Brown from behind, at which point Brown turned around, raised his hands in the universal sign of surrender, and perished in a hail of bullets.

Here’s the reality. All of this was a lie. ...read full transcript here

Iran’s No China

Caroline Glick — The Obama administration will never abandon its courtship of Iran. On the eve of the extended deadline in the US-led six-party talks with Iran regarding Teheran’s illicit nuclear weapons program, the one thing that is absolutely clear is that courting Iran is the centerpiece of US President Barack Obama’s Middle East policy. Come what may in Geneva, this will not change. To be clear, Obama does not seek to check Iran’s rise to regional hegemony by appeasing it. None of the actions he has taken to date with regard to Iran can...

Hit Men Hired To Murder In Ferguson

So why isn't anyone going on trial for inciting hit men to murder in Ferguson, Missouri?

And with all the civil rights leaders whipping up racial hatred into new frenzied levels of angst and anger, it is nearly a certainty for some people to be injured, maimed and maybe murdered because of these cowardly leaders fanning the flames of arson, destruction and likely murder.

Police Departments Seize Assets From Public
Based On Department ‘Wish Lists’

By J.D. Hayes, Natural News — Few Americans want to actually believe that their country, increasingly, is becoming an authoritarian police state, but more and more are realizing that that is precisely what is happening. We feel it in our gut as we see it with our own eyes, because we are treated to example after example on a daily basis. For instance, who among us would have believed 10, 20 or 30 years ago that someday police departments -- which are sworn to "protect and serve" their respective publics -- would adopt property-seizure policies...

Jesus Privately Briefing His Inner Circle of Disciples
Regarding The Last Days
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” ~ Matthew 24:3-14

Obama Sued For Changing Obamacare
Case charges president illegally flipped federal law ‘upside down’

By Bob Unruh —
Major Garrett wrote in National Journal: “The Affordable Care Act means what it says and says what it means. Until it doesn’t.”

And the New York Times compiled a list of more than a dozen significant changes President Obama made to the law in just over a year, such as extending deadlines and allowing insurers to reinstate canceled plans.

All of that could be the subject of a federal court hearing in Washington on Wednesday, where a lawsuit challenges as unlawful the executive orders Obama used to unilaterally alter Obamacare, without any approval or endorsement from Congress, which wrote the law.

David Yerushalmi, senior counsel for the American Freedom Law Center, said, “In order to keep his broken promises and clean up the political mess he made, President Obama disregarded his constitutional duty to obey the law of the land and flipped Obamacare upside down without congressional approval.”

AFLC co-founder Robert Muise said the “lawlessness of this administration is breathtaking and dangerous.”

“And the American people are sick and tired of this president’s blatant disregard for the Constitution, so we, as private citizens, are doing something about it,” he said.

Their lawsuit challenging the use of executive orders to change a federal law was filed months ago, but oral arguments now are scheduled Wednesday before U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton.

The complaint alleges Obama violated his constitutional duty to “faithfully execute” the law as passed by Congress in 2010. It contends Obama violated the Constitution’s separation of powers, which is designed to protect private individuals from the tyranny of government, and in particular, from the tyranny of a “single branch of government that seeks to usurp power and authority not permitted under the Constitution.”

Problems arose with Obamacare almost as soon as it was adopted. For example, in 2013, “millions of Americans received notices that their health insurance was canceled, a result that was predictable in light of the various mandates imposed by Obamacare,” the AFLC said.

“This caused a political firestorm for the White House because Obama had promised the American people that if ‘you like your health care plan, you can keep it’ – a promise that was declared the ‘lie of the year’ by the Pulitzer Prize winning PolitiFact.com.”

So Obama “engaged in a series of executive actions that materially altered Obamacare without congressional approval.”

The case explains, “By executive fiat, President Obama has licensed prohibited conduct and has engaged in a policy-based, non-enforcement of federal law for an entire category of individuals and organizations subject to the law in direct violation of the United State Constitution.”

The case points out the U.S. Supreme Court just months ago wrote “the power of executing the laws necessarily includes both authority and responsibility to resolve some questions left open by Congress that arise during the law’s administration.”

“But it does not include a power to revise clear statutory terms that turn out not to work in practice.”

Wrote Garrett: “Systematically and with an eye toward his party’s immediate political troubles, Obama has reshaped, photo-shopped, reimagined, and reengineered Obamacare. … To those who must live with and live under the law, the arbitrary is the norm. The only pattern is chaos.”

A case filed by a Florida company against Obamacare in 2013 charged Obama had no authority to simply change the law once it had been approved by Congress and signed.

The case was brought in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida by Boca Raton-based employer Kawa Orthodontics LLP. It argues that the delay of the employer mandate “exceeded [the Obama administration's] statutory authority, is arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to law, and is otherwise unlawful.”

The complaint alleges a decision by Obama to delay the employer mandate violates the Administrative Procedure Act, which forbids “agency action” that exceeds an agency’s statutory authority, is arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion or otherwise not in accordance with the law. The complaint asks the court to enter a judgment declaring the delay to be unlawful and an injunction to stop it immediately.

“We obviously object to the employer mandate and the entire Obamacare law, but we understand that, under the U.S. Constitution, the law can only be changed by legislation passed by Congress and signed by the president,” said Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, which brought the case. “But politics do not trump the Constitution or the rule of law.”

The latest case, by the AFLC, states: “By altering the clear and unambiguous statutory requirements of the Affordable Care Act, including the act’s ‘essential’ component, and thus establishing with an unconstitutional and illegal claim of executive authority that otherwise-prohibited conduct will not violate the act, [President Obama and his executive agencies] have directly harmed law-abiding citizens, including plaintiffs, and violated the United States Constitution.”... » Full Story

Harry Reid’s Chief Of Staff Unleashes On Obama Over Midterm Losses

Mia Love Becomes The First Black Republican Female
Member Of Congress In U.S. History
By Matthew Burke, TPNN —
In the State of Utah, Republican Mia Love defeated Democrat Doug Owens by a 50% – 47% margin in the state’s 4th congressional district, with 100% of precincts reporting. Love, who is of Haitian descent, made history by becoming the first black Republican woman to win a seat in Congress.

Love, 38, who almost won the seat in 2012, losing by only 768 votes, will fill the seat vacated by Democrat Congressman Jim Matheson, who chose not to seek re-election.

“Thank you for the trust you have placed in me. I will work every day to be deserving of it,” Love, who was the mayor of Saratoga Springs said in a statement following her victory. “Regardless of who you voted for today, I hope you know that I am going to Washington to represent everyone in the district and invite you to engage with me in finding real solutions to the challenges we face as a country,” she stated.

“I am not going to ask you to trust Washington—I am going to convince Washington to trust you,” Love proclaimed.

Love, born in Brooklyn, NY, and a graduate of Harvard, summarized her position on Obamacare during her campaign by saying, “When government gets too involved, the same thing always happens: prices go up and quality goes down. Obamacare, which is not affordable and not sustainable, is a classic example of this.”...

Time For GOP To IMPEACH Obama!
Dangerous Lame Duck

CleanTV: Family-Friendly Television and Video On Demand

Partial Transcript: Now that Republicans have won back the majority in the Senate, there is no time to lose in drawing up impeachment proceedings against Obama.

The so-called 'lame duck' is a very dangerous duck on the loose, issuing so many executive orders and other executive actions that mere mortals cannot possibly keep up them all.

It kind of reminds me of that Whack a Mole game at carnivals where each time you hit those blasted moles with a hammer, several more pop up again that need to be bashed back down into submission.

Frankly, there is no time to lose. Impeachment proceedings must be initiated the first day of sessions with the newly elected Senate. The pro-Obama crowd will argue we're crazy since there's only 2 years left. But I say we're crazy if we don't begin impeachment proceedings.

Why? To limit further damage to our nation. We've seen the horrendous damage Obama has already inflicted on us. Why let that go one moment longer than necessary?... read full transcript here

Islamic State Calls For The Invasion Of Jerusalem

“And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies,
then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.” ~  Luke 21:20

NTEB news Desk —
The Islamic State (ISIS) has issued a statement saying that an Islamic Caliphate will be established in the Sinai, calling it the ”first step towards the invasion of Jerusalem”. The statement threatens Egyptian security forces, which were suffered an attack on October 24. ISIS urged jihadists in the region to ”destroy police checkpoints and stations, launch RPGs at their gatherings and show the world that the Rule of God must be imposed”.

As the prophets have declared, Jerusalem is the end game in this spiritual battle. Everything that is happening right now will reach it’s true fulfillment in the battle of Armageddon during the time of Jacob’s trouble.

“Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.” ~  Jeremiah 30:7...

Retired General Obama Appointed To Lead Campaign Against ISIS
Is Defending Islam
By Ben Barrack, Shoebat Foundation —
General John Allen (Ret.) was selected as Barack Obama’s envoy for the coalition to combat ISIS. While in Kuwait, Allen echoed Obama’s sentiment that the group is “not Islamic” (despite its leader having a PhD in Islamic studies). In so doing, Allen is being dishonest.

CNS News reported: A global effort to counter claims by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS/ISIL) that it is acting in the name of Islam must include a counter-narrative that highlights “our profound respect” for the religion, the administration’s point man in the anti-ISIS coalition said this week.

It’s patently obvious that Allen is taking orders as the mouthpiece of Obama. The extent to which he actually believes the words coming out of his own mouth notwithstanding, Allen has a history of being somewhat of an apologist for Islam. When he served as Commander of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in 2012, Allen took to YouTube and apologized for the “improper” way U.S. soldiers disposed of “Islamic materials” (Qur’ans) in Afghanistan...

In a dramatic development, Israeli cabinet members are warning that US President Barack Obama threatened Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the US may opt not to oppose future hostile UN Security Council votes, unless Israel accedes to American policy demands, Israel’s NRG News reported on Sunday.

“The prime minister told colleagues in recent days … that his office’s understanding of the issue and the government’s take on it is that the Americans will not cast a veto against a resolution that reaches the Security Council,” Ariel Kahana, diplomatic correspondent for the Makor Rishon and NRG dailies, told The Algemeiner on Monday, quoting ministerial-level sources....

Obama’s Strategy In Syria Is Collapsing
Vox —
On Sunday, the already-awful situation in Syria got much, much worse. Al-Qaeda's faction in Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra, routed two major US-backed rebel groups, leaving al-Qaeda much stronger and US-backed rebels much weaker. Nusra even captured the rebels' advanced American weaponry — much as ISIS did during its rampage through Iraq in June.

These groups were supposed to be the great hope of America's strategy in Syria. That they were defeated so roundly and so soon after the US began implementing its new anti-ISIS strategy is proof positive of a wider truth: America's strategy for Syria has already fallen apart. Despite a spate of ISIS setbacks in recent months, America's effort to defeat ISIS in Syria appears to be making negative progress. Part of what's driving this is that every other available option is terrible, forcing the US to stick with a losing strategy that it knows well is losing....

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said regardless of the outcome of Tuesday’s election, President Obama “will continue to act aggressively” to use his executive authority, including on immigration reform.

Former CBS News Reporter Sharyl Attkisson Claims Existence Of Obama Enemies’ List
By Paul Bond, The Hollywood Reporter —
Sharyl Attkisson is an investigative journalist who became the story when she quit CBS News after two decades amid allegations that the network refused to run some of her stories that were critical of President Barack Obama. Ahead of the Tuesday release of her book Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama’s Washington, she spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about her struggles with CBS executives and her assertion that her computers were hacked, possibly by Obama operatives...

THR: “Do you believe that people working for the president of the United States hacked your computer and spied on you?”

Sharyl Attkisson: “The way you phrase the question makes me want to couch it a little bit. I have been told by two computer forensics experts that a highly sophisticated entity using abilities outside non-government resources, using software proprietary either to the DIA, CIA, FBI or NSA made repeat remote intrusions into both my computers over a period of time. And we have evidence of a government computer connection into my computer system.”...

Jesus Privately Briefing His Inner Circle of Disciples
Regarding The Last Days
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” ~ Matthew 24:3-14

LEFT-LEANING FORMER CNN HOST PENS SURPRISINGLY SCATHING OP-ED ON HOW ‘OBAMA COMMITTED PROFESSIONAL SUICIDE’ THIS WEEK


Truth Lives Here

“It’s time he got off the damn golf course, got up to speed with his intelligence briefings and focused on wiping out ISIS,” he wrote. “Before they wipe out more of the people he serves.”

Jason Howerton, TheBlaze — President Barack Obama “committed professional suicide” this week, former CNN host Piers Morgan argued in a Wednesday column for MailOnline.

Morgan, who was recently named editor-at-large of MailOnline in the U.S., accused the president of managing to “single-handedly alienate 200,000 employees in the American intelligence agencies by going on 60 Minutes and ruthlessly chucking them all under a bus over the rise of terror group ISIS.”

Citing New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Morgan slammed Obama for saying “they” instead of “we” when discussing the failure of the United States to effectively respond to the Islamic State terror threat.

“A more shameless, reprehensible display of buck-passing it would be hard to find from a sitting President,” he wrote.

He also referred to a “theory” in politics that “once a leader has fired 50 or more people from his or her administration, he or she is finished.”

More from the scathing column:
Obama prides himself on a ‘leading from behind’ American strategy to confronting global terrorism and the current chaos raging throughout the Middle East.

But refusing to intervene in conflicts like Syria has so far proved to be spectacularly self-defeating.

Far from making America stronger, Obama has made the world’s greatest military power look weak.

So weak that these Jihadist thugs think they can behead American citizens with impunity in glossy snuff movies.
Morgan went on to criticize Obama’s “enthusiasm” for golf, noting that he has played 192 rounds since becoming president. He joked that “even Rory McIlroy would struggle to match such enthusiasm for the game.”

The ex-CNN host also speculated that Islamic State terrorists must have felt “emboldened” to see the president of the United States giving a statement on the beheading of American journalist James Foley — and then out smiling on the golf course just seven minutes later.

The ‘Mistake’ Hospital Treating Ebola Patient Made That ‘Hopefully…Will Never Happen Again’
By Oliver Darcy, TheBlaze —
The first patient diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S. went to the emergency room last week, but was released — despite telling medical professionals he had just returned from a trip to Liberia. “A travel history was taken, but it wasn’t communicated to the people who were making the decision. … It was a mistake. They dropped the ball,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told CNN’s Jake Tapper....

White House: No Travel Restrictions Into US To Control Ebola Spread
By Sarah Fisher, Ben Shapiro’s Truth Revolt —
The White House announced on Wednesday that there will be no travel restrictions or additional screening efforts to stop additional cases of Ebola from entering into the United States. Spokesman Josh Earnest said that current anti-Ebola measures, which include screenings in West African airports and observation of passengers in the United States, will be sufficient to prevent the “wide spread” of the virus....

Starbucks Howard Schultz Tells Anti-Gay Marriage Christians

“For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.” ~ Romans 1:26-27

‘Now The End Begins’ News Desk —
“In the first full quarter after this boycott was announced, our sales and our earnings, shall we say politely, were a bit disappointing,” said the shareholder, Tom Strobhar, whom the Huffington Post identifies at the founder of the anti-gay marriage Corporate Morality Action Center.
Was Schultz taken aback? Not in the least. He responded, “Not every decision is an economic decision. Despite the fact that you recite statistics that are narrow in time, we did provide a 38% shareholder return over the last year. I don’t know how many things you invest in, but I would suspect not many things, companies, products, investments have returned 38% over the last 12 months. Having said that, it is not an economic decision to me. The lens in which we are making that decision is through the lens of our people. We employ over 200,000 people in this company, and we want to embrace diversity. Of all kinds.”
At that point the audience interrupted in cheers and applause. Then Schultz concluded, “If you feel, respectfully, that you can get a higher return than the 38% you got last year, it’s a free country. You can sell your shares in Starbucks and buy shares in another company. Thank you very much.” More cheers.

Dr. Ben Carson Warns: We Might Not Even HAVE Elections In 2016

ISIS Plans On Sending Muslims Infected With Ebola Into America
To Infect And Kill Americans


By Theodore Shoebat and Walid Shoebat —
ISIS threatened the United States, and the allies to spread the Ebola virus, within those states, if continues to wage war on the organization inside Syria and Iraq.

ISIS explained that among the viruses that its members can “synthesize and produce” are “Ebola and Corona”. ISIS also said,
followers and soldiers of the Islamic State are mostly suicide bombers and all of them are ready not only to carry Ebola, but to drink Ebola if they were asked to carry and spread it in the United States. This is not difficult but we need a decision from the leaders jihadist.
Ebola could easily be transmitted through bodily fluids, including sweat, tears, saliva, blood, urine, semen, etc., including objects that have come in contact with bodily fluids (such as bed sheets, clothing, and needles) and corpses.

It is said that “this disease will go airborne, and there are many other mechanisms through which mutation might make it much more transmissible.”

The statement from ISIS said that
the process of spreading disease is not difficult, it is easily transported in a bottle in your bag and take them from Africa to America and open in a air-conditioning duct or put it in the public drinking water by elevator doors
The statement from ISIS also said:
the process of cultivating bacteria can be done by any student in the Faculty of Science or Department of Biology. They do not need complex laboratories and even a makeshift laboratory can be made in a small apartment in which we can farm millions of germs and viruses
However, Jack Chow, service professor of global health at Carnegie Mellon University, says that by the time a would be martyr came to America, the symptoms of Ebola would be conspicuously displayed on his person, and he would be too sick to get passed customs.

But, this does not mean ISIS cannot use animals, especially bats, to carry Ebola into America. Bats in particular are effective carriers of ebola and could be easily utilized to transport Ebola.

Muslims could also contract Ebola during the annual Hajj which is suppose to be starting soon, in which millions of Muslims will gather together in Mecca. Saudi Arabian authorities have stepped up safety and security measures, and there is a long list of troubles they hope to avoid: crime, fire, stampedes, and the spread of infectious disease.

This year’s Hajj is shadowed by both the terrorist threat posed by Islamic State (IS) jihadists and the possible Ebola contagion. Over 98,000 have been prevented from entering by Saudi authorities for security reasons or due to a lack of authorization. Massive preventative measures have been taken by Saudi Arabia

New estimates by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are warning that the number of Ebola cases could soar dramatically in the weeks and months ahead. The CDC says that unless efforts to curb the outbreak are ramped up significantly and quickly, the disease could infect up to 1.4 million people by mid-January in two nations, Sierra Leone and Liberia, alone.

Some epidemiologists are saying that there will be between 77,000 and 277,000 cases of Ebola by the end of 2014.

Top Ten Things You Need To Do NOW To Protect Yourself
From An Uncontrolled Ebola Outbreak
By Mike Adams, Natural News —
Now that Ebola "patient zero" has been confirmed in the United States, it's clear that Ebola is spreading far beyond the control of any government or health department. Just weeks ago, President Obama promised Ebola wouldn't arrive in the United States, but now it's here.

The CDC is promising that they can keep it all under control for this patient discovered to have carried Ebola into Dallas. But can they also contain the next Ebola patient? How about the one after that? And how does any government contain a viral pandemic that can't be stopped with bullets and bombs?

In truth, if you want to be safe from the increasingly likely possibility of an Ebola outbreak in North America, you need to take steps NOW to protect yourself. That's what I specialize in. I'm the creator of the www.BioDefense.com website which has now taught pandemic preparedness skills and lifesaving knowledge to over one million people.

Here are the highlights of what you need to be doing right now, in preparation for a pandemic outbreak: ...

Mark Levin Calls For Commission On ISIS Failures
Breitbart TV —
Levin argued the Obama administration’s attempts to shift blame for the failure to anticipate the rise of ISIS onto the intelligence community were evidence of a “full blown cover-up.” He then said “I’ll tell you exactly what we can do. It is time, once and for all, to find a leader in the United States Congress who will stand up. It's not going to be Boehner, because he won't stand up, but somebody has to stand up, call for a commission, find out, get to the bottom of this while he's still president, not 30 years from now when everybody's looking back and wringing their hands.”...
